JPMorgan Chase launches $1.5T initiative to secure critical minerals supply chains
What happened
JPMorgan Chase appointed Andrew Frame to lead its critical minerals investment efforts under a $1.5-trillion Security and Resiliency Initiative (SRI). This initiative is designed to strengthen US and allied supply chains for materials essential to manufacturing, energy, and defense. Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, stated that the United States has become overly reliant on unreliable sources of these critical minerals.
